Chelsea reportedly have a five-man shortlist ready as they look to bolster their centre-back options. The Blues are working on deals, but are currently focused on the FIFA Club World Cup.
Bobby Vincent was on football.london recently when he named Jorrel Hato as one of the key targets for Chelsea. He went on to name Murillo, Jarrad Branthwaite, Marc Guehi, and Tomas Araujo on the list, as they look to reshape the squad.
He said in a Q&A:
Former striker Tore Andre Flo spoke to AceOdds earlier this month and urged the Blues to re-sign Geuhi. He opined that the Crystal Palace captain and their former academy star was ideal for the squad, saying:
Newcastle United and Liverpool are also interested in Marc Guehi this summer.
Former player Shaun Wright-Phillips spoke to Betway earlier this month and opined that Chelsea were making a mistake by letting Kepa Arrizabalaga leave. He said the goalkeeper had done well at AFC Bournemouth and should be given another chance at Stamford Bridge.
He said (via TribalFootball):
Arsenal are set to sign Kepa Arrizabalga for a reported £5 million fee. He signed a one-year deal before leaving on loan last summer to protect his value and secure a transfer fee for the Blues.
